This show will feature 16 members throughout the season and will use hidden cameras to follow the girls.

Hmm... I'm always skeptical of Japanese programmes so I'm gonna say that if this show does not produce a voodoo doll of Acchan with thousands of pins in it or Mayuyu dressing up in full cosplay attire dancing to some anime music, then AKB600sec is probably not as raw I would like it to be.

^^ In the 1st gif when they both lock eyes, it looked like Miichan parted her lips anticipating some tongue action only for Yuko to let her off the hook, probably thinking she's still too young. Maybe next time, when the cameras aren't rolling...

its quite obvious that they have been briefed that there will be a "hidden camera" following them on that particular day, although some parts of the show looks as though they were being stalked, but some parts that the 'hidden camera' were so up closed, they can't be not noticing that a stranger is stalking them. haha

but i suspect yuko are making use of this opportunity to hide her feeling towards kojima and had planned this act with miichan? or simply making kojima jealous ? haha which i think yuko got jealous when she performed おしべとめしべと夜の蝶々 with acchan... haha

This thread/topic died pretty fast for a 4 day a week show. Just to continue; didn't know Aki-P met any of the girls at all and Maeda wanted to go "super-fishing"?

Just watched today's ep on Sae and it's probably the best one yet because, shes' with family! Don't want to spoil anything but you Japanese-learned-guys could probably get a kick out of what the Miyazawa family is talking about.

Tomorrow? Mariko. Wonder how different will it be from the Jichael Mackson segment on a day in the life of Shinoda Mariko.

^ I have to admit, I loved Sae's ep. Something about looking into an idol's life and seeing how they interact with family on their private time adds major points for me. Loved how natural she seems just joking around at the table during dinner. Thumbs up for that

Let's add my thoughts on the previous episodes too:

Itano Tomomi: Not a bad way to start off the series: shopping for clothes, girl talk at a nail salon, fooding with staff. Relatively plain, but it sets a good start for the episodes to come.Kojima Haruna: This was a bore for me. Nice to see her doting on her dog and all, but it wasn't very interesting.Kashiwagi Yuki: Definitely better than Kojiharu's (don't hate me!). Would have liked to hear a little bit more of her during the recording studio, but the interaction with Myao and Amina made up for it, even though Yuki ended up not knowing about most of the stuff they were talking about Kagoshima-ben was a plus Takahashi Minami: Gotta love when AKB members interact with AkiP. You end up learning things about them that you had no idea about. Btw, hair down Takamina needs to happen more often.Maeda Atsuko: To be honest, the part at the hair salon made me sleepy as well. Not much happened since Acchan was sleeping as well, though it was interesting to see how long her hair 'currently' is. The super-high tension at the fishing place was hilarious though. And the food; there was so much Oshima Yuko: Was definitely expecting the groping, but didn't think Miichan would come off as so 'willing'. Sleepy Yuko was cute though. And she got those shoes she bought in the episode! Definitely want to see more of the dinner conversation though; seemed like fun.

Seems like both Sae and Sayaka are family girls, going out with family and spending time, etc. I found it funny that she went out with her brother to shop, though. The dress she picked was awful. The restaurant bit was pretty interesting too. I guess she retains her friendships well. What I found most interesting was when she said she'll only marry after dating for 10 years, though. I'm guessing she's the modern type that looks at marriage as just a more firm (and legal) way of staying together.
